Hmm - apparently not - RS website finds nothing here either :-(

You managed to find the only website with a 100% negative rating on
the G5! :-)

I have one (Eton G5). Essentially, I agree with those comments. LW
insensitive, and suffers from MW interference. MW is OK. SW not bad from
(say) 4 to 20MHz (not good at all 1.6 to 3MHz, where whip switches in).
FM seems very good (don't have really local stations, so haven't noticed
overload). Where insensitive, external antenna helps, but overloads
easily.
